Michael Jackson “The King Of Pop” in every right did a lot of amazing things in his career.

But, did you know that he was almost a big part of the Star Wars universe? That is right, Michael Jackson was in talks with George Lucas and wanted to play the most despised character of all time in movies!

The King of pop almost became the kings of acting flops! When the singer told George Lucas he wanted to play Jar Jar Binks in the franchises 1999 blockbuster episode I:The Phantom Menace….

Ahmed Best, who voiced the infamous Jar Jar character, explained Jackson’s interest in an interview with a news media outlet…”Me. Natalie Portman and George Lucas and his children were at a Michael Jackson concert at Wembley Arena.

“We were taken backstage and met Michael and Lisa Marie Presley. George introduced me as Jar Jar, and I was like, that is kinda weird.”  He than asked George why he introduced him as Jar Jar. He said “Well Michael wanted to do the part, but he wanted to do it in prosthetic’s and makeup.”  George wanted everything in CGI, of course, as we all know.

“My guess is Michael Jackson would have been bigger than the movie as well, and George just didn’t want that… Who knows, what if they would have done Jar Jar in prosthetic’s and make-up? Would he have been so bad?
